Eric Bugenhagen is a lifetime lifter that has displayed many impressive feats of strength on YouTube over the last ten years. He's lifted 800 pounds as a behind-the-back deadlift and bench pressed 500 pounds, just to mention two.
I believe he's currently 36 years old, 6'2, and his weight has varied between 225-275 pounds throughout his last 10 years.
Of a special note, given his consistency, it's extremely likely that he's never taken performance enhancing drugs. I read a YouTube comment on one of his videos one time that said, "he's unnaturally natural" lol
The reason why he's a curious case is because many of his dietary habits have huge red flags in regards to both PUFA consumption and much of Garrett Smith's advice.
*to be perfectly clear, I'm now a huge fan of Garrett Smith and his advice has been skyrocketing my sensation of overall wellbeing unlike anyone else I've taken advice from in these last few weeks. I happen to agree with the notion that the man is doing some miraculous work.
To present the topic of the thread in short order, over the last 10 years, video evidence of the following can be found of Bugenhagen doing some of the following at any given point in time:
-drinking a gallon of milk a day for 10 years (vitamin A, vitamin D, calcium)
-eating a pound of garlic all at once, with chocolate milk (sulfur)
-eating several cloves of garlic every day (sulfur)
-eating multiple boxes of Nature valley granola bars and/or other fig bars daily (glyphosate, PUFA must be very high)
-eating entire bags of bagels daily (PUFA, glyphosate)
-drinking 1-2 pots of coffee per day (slows down ALDH I think it is?)
-drinking 4-10 scoops of instant coffee daily
-drinking a preworkout supplement that contains 400mg of caffeine plus yohimbe (liver fat burner) in ADDITION to coffee habits
-self reportedly getting little sleep, suffering from sleep apnea, and never using a CPAP machine
>>> YET besides his impressive physical performance, stature, and overall energy, every video which his eyes are displayed in sunlight will reveal that both his iris and sclera appear very clear.
Literally the only thing I can think of when I ponder this dilemma of how his health seems so good is that he's always consumed a large base of soluble fiber through bread, beans, and/or granola that it has effectively prevented most liver damage from happening in the first place.

And a recent interview that goes over his bigger history, dietary habits, and lifting philosophy is here:
